Architect Rui Rosmaninho creates a single-family house located in Aveiro, with magnificent views of its characteristic estuary, which extends parallel to the ocean, on the Atlantic coast of Portugal. It is this proximity to the sea that influences the choice of the exterior finishes of the home, seeking to respect the aesthetics and traditions of the area.
The project is designed to satisfy the needs of a family with a modern lifestyle, combining aesthetic quality with a minimalist and contemporary design. Designed to host visits and other activities, details are proposed that allow the space to be very functional, such as custom furniture or certain ceramic and light wood finishes, which also create a comfortable and bright environment.

The house by Rui Rosmaninho is developed from a concrete structure and also uses materials such as Corten steel and ceramic, which in the case of the exterior cladding is in the form of slats, a contemporary version that imitates the tradition of the area. Together, these materials ensure low maintenance of the building.
The home is characterized by being a delicate work with a focus on details and finishes, both exterior and interior, always seeking to create comfortable environments. The use of various materials helps to generate the distribution, providing dynamism to the home and making each room unique.

Project description by Rui Rosmaninho
With this project of a beach house with magnificent views of the Aveiro estuary (Portugal), the client wanted to satisfy their needs for a modern lifestyle, combining aesthetic quality with minimalist and contemporary design. The sun exposure, natural light, and landscape influenced and defined the design of the dwelling. The proximity to the sea influenced the choice of exterior finishes.
Concrete, Corten steel, and ceramic ensure low maintenance of the building. The exterior ceramic slats are a contemporary version that aims to replicate the vertical stripes of traditional "palheiros", characteristic of this area. The widespread use of ceramic finishes reflects the owner's desire, an entrepreneur in the ceramic industry.
Inside, the client wanted a comfortable, light atmosphere that appealed to relaxation. To this effect, whites and beiges, light woods, and especially rough wood elements, as if carved from a single trunk, were used extensively. The finishes of some areas repeat the materials used on the exterior, blending with the interior and complementing the view allowed by the large windows.

Because the house is also intended to host family and friends, details were thought out that allow the space to be more functional, and for this purpose, all the furniture was designed and produced to measure for this project. And who said ceramic can't be cozy? Floors and finishes are essentially in this material. For this reason, ceramic finishes were chosen that look like wallpaper, providing immense comfort to the environment. For the bedrooms' toilets, totally white ceramics were chosen, working the walls with pieces of different shapes and with different applications, bringing dynamism and uniqueness to each one, despite being very similar in their layout.
An excellent collaboration between architecture and interior design firms, which materialized in a magnificent and peaceful retreat for this family.
